An optical fiber or optical fibre is a flexible, transparent fiber made by drawing glass (silica) or plastic to a diameter slightly thicker than that of a human hair.

Optical fibers are used most often as a means to transmit light between the two ends of the fiber and find wide usage in fiber-optic communications, where they permit transmission over longer distances and at higher bandwidths (data rates) than wire cables.

Fibers are used instead of metal wires because signals travel along them with lesser amounts of loss; in addition, fibers are also immune to electromagnetic interference, a problem from which metal wires suffer excessively.

Fibers are also used for illumination, and are wrapped in bundles so that they may be used to carry images, thus allowing viewing in confined spaces, as in the case of a fiberscope.

Specially designed fibers are also used for a variety of other applications, some of them being fiber optic sensors and fiber lasers.

A textile or cloth is a flexible material consisting of a network of natural or artificial fibres (yarn or thread).

Yarn is produced by spinning raw fibres of wool, flax, cotton, hemp, or other material to produce long strands.

Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting, or felting.

Clothing (also called clothes and attire) is fiber and textile material worn on the body.

The wearing of clothing is mostly restricted to human beings and is a feature of nearly all human societies.

The amount and type of clothing worn depends on body type, social, and geographic considerations.

Some clothing types can be gender-specific.

Footwear refers to garments worn on the feet, which originally serves to purpose of protection against adversities of the environment, usually regarding ground textures and temperature.

Footwear in the manner of shoes therefore primarily serves the purpose to ease the locomotion and prevent injuries.

Secondly footwear can also be used for fashion and adornment as well as to indicate the status or rank of the person within a social structure.

Industry is the production of goods or related services within an economy.

The major source of revenue of a group or company is the indicator of its relevant industry.

When a large group has multiple sources of revenue generation, it is considered to be working in different industries.

Manufacturing industry became a key sector of production and labour in European and North American countries during the Industrial Revolution, upsetting previous mercantile and feudal economies.

This came through many successive rapid advances in technology, such as the production of steel and coal.
